“In our union we say this: ‘If there is money for supersonic missiles, there is money for school support staff’” @NEUnion General Secretary Daniel Kebede making the case for #WelfareNotWarfare at last night’s Eve of Budget demonstration. “We are not going to accept that they are going to spend money on bombs. We want it spent on children’s books. We want it spent on the school estate. We want it spent on alleviating the crushing burden of school poverty. And if they don’t, we’re going to fight them.” #BooksNotBombs #NoMoreAusterity

Corbyn’s 2019 manifesto was sadly (literally a few months) ahead of its time. Imagine if we now had a political party arguing for free broadband, a properly funded NHS, scrapping university fees and a host of other common sense policies. How could anyone try and discredit them?

Join the National Demo 7/6/25, and let’s build a powerful and united anti austerity movement. ➡️For transport details and more, see our website: thepeoplesassembly.org.uk ➡️Alternatively, speak to your union branch regarding transport to the demo as it’s highly likely your union is supporting this demo. #TaxTheRich #welfarenotwarfare #nocuts
